My Australian Mafia Road Trip

What connects a stabbing in Fitzroy to a series of murders in the Queen Victoria Market and the disappearance of an aspiring politician in Griffith? In the 1960s, Australians first heard the word 'ndrangheta', the name for a ruthless mafia with origins in Calabria, that had taken root Down Under. My Australian Mafia Roadtrip will take you on a journey between Melbourne, Griffith and Mildura to discover key sites in Australia's mafia history. You will meet the protagonists of a century-old story and, together with hosts Carlo Oreglia and Anna Sergi, discover what lies behind the headlines.
